Who we help

When to consider surgery

Joint replacement is usually considered when pain and stiffness interfere with daily life and medication, physiotherapy and injections no longer help. Check any signs that sound familiar — and request a doctor’s assessment.

Important to know

If joint pain is escalating quickly, the joint has suddenly become deformed, or it was injured in a fall, seek medical care without delay. The final decision on surgery is always made by an orthopedic surgeon after reviewing your X-ray, symptoms and medical history.

About joint surgery

What you need to know

Knees and hips are the most heavily loaded, weight-bearing joints. Diseases like osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis impair how they work and can sharply lower quality of life. Falls and fractures can severely damage the hip joint, causing intense pain and loss of mobility.

Pain and limited movement come from cartilage loss, bone spurs (osteophytes), joint inflammation and nerve irritation. Left untreated, this leads over time to chronic pain, joint deformity, muscle weakness and a higher risk of falls.

In these cases surgery helps — arthroplasty: the damaged joint is replaced with an artificial one (a prosthesis) to restore function and dramatically reduce pain. Modern techniques and physiotherapy make recovery faster.

Goal of the surgery

Dramatically reduce pain

Replace the worn joint and remove the source of constant pain.

Restore mobility

Walk, stand and climb stairs freely again.

Get your life back

Return to normal activity without the burden of disease.

Procedures

The surgeries we help with

During arthroplasty the damaged joint is replaced with an artificial one. The exact procedure is determined by a surgeon after reviewing your X-ray.

Knee replacement

Under general anesthesia, the surgeon removes the damaged surfaces of the femur and tibia and fits a prosthesis — restoring smooth, pain-free movement of the knee.

Approximately

$6,499 – $16,500

Total hip replacement

Both the head of the femur and the socket are replaced — with a metal shell lined with durable plastic. Used when the joint is significantly damaged.

Approximately

$6,499 – $16,500

Partial hip replacement

Only the damaged top part of the femur is replaced with a metal prosthesis. A smaller procedure used when the joint socket is still healthy.

Approximately

from $6,499

FAQ

Answers to the key questions about surgery

Who is joint replacement for?
Surgery is considered when pain and stiffness in the knee or hip interfere with daily life — walking, climbing stairs, sleeping — and medication, physiotherapy and injections no longer give enough relief. Common causes are osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and hip damage after a fall or fracture. The final decision is made by an orthopedic surgeon after reviewing your X-ray and medical history.

In joint replacement (arthroplasty) the damaged joint is replaced with an artificial prosthesis:

  • Knee replacement — the damaged bone surfaces are removed and a prosthesis of metal and durable plastic is fitted.
  • Partial hip replacement — only the damaged top part of the femur is replaced with a metal prosthesis.
  • Total hip replacement — both the head of the femur and the socket are replaced, when both surfaces are damaged.
Ongoing joint damage usually leads to chronic pain, limited mobility, weakness in the muscles around the joint and, over time, joint deformity. The risk of falls and injury rises, other joints (the other knee, the hips, the lower back) take on extra strain, and constant pain and inactivity can affect mental well-being and quality of life.
Serious complications are rare, but risks exist: infection, blood clots, implant loosening or failure, nerve or blood-vessel damage, persistent pain or stiffness, and rarely a reaction to anesthesia. No surgery guarantees a perfect result — which is why a specialist’s assessment matters, weighing whether the expected benefit outweighs the risk in your specific case.
Before surgery the doctor selects the prosthesis type for your needs; tests usually include an X-ray of the joint, an ECG and blood tests. The hospital stay is 1–3 days after a knee procedure and 3–5 days after a hip procedure. Recovery is faster with physiotherapy, and walking is encouraged as early as possible. Returning to normal activity takes several weeks, and full recovery takes a few months.
Surgery starts from $6,499. The package price usually includes the hospital stay, the prosthesis (implant), pre-op tests, airport and hospital transfers, translation support and post-op consultations. Our services are already part of the price — you don’t pay extra. The price through us is always equal to or below going direct to the clinic. The final figure depends on the country, clinic, prosthesis type, surgeon’s experience and complexity of the case.
Clinic selection is done exclusively by our medical team. From more than 200 clinics reviewed, we picked the best, assessing doctors’ qualifications and experience, equipment and prosthesis quality, the number and outcomes of procedures performed, international accreditations (such as JCI), comfort and conditions, and exclusive pricing. We keep the list updated — adding new clinics and removing any that no longer meet the standards.
